The document appears to be a pre-solicitation for a federal contract opportunity issued by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation. The requirement is for two National Stock Number (NSN) items to support a DLA strategic initiative. The items are considered sole source to the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), Collins Power Transmission Systems (CAGE 99551), as they are the only approved source of supply. The contract is anticipated to be awarded as an add-on to the existing Subsumable Contract SPE4AX-18-D-9412 under the Umbrella Long-Term Contract (LTC) SPE4AX-18-D-9402. DLA plans to use a letter solicitation format and will consider responses from non-OEM sources that can provide evidence of their ability to supply the items. Responses from non-OEM sources are required by Thursday, August 8, 2024. The justification for the sole source determination is based on the government's lack of data rights and the uneconomical nature of reverse engineering the parts.
